Life in a Nutshell
...as I prepare our dinner which always consists of a meat, a starch and a veggie.....
What am I going to do if any of my sons gives me an ultra-crunchy daughter-in-law who disdains my cooking?
.....I know I have a long wait, since DS#1 is only 8 years old, but it's a concern I have.

As a granola-cruncher myself (though not ultra-crunchy, lol), I just have to reassure you that I do not disdain your dinners! :-)
Are you sure?
How 'bout tonight's:
Frozen meatballs with Hunts Spaghetti sauce and angel-hair pasta, and a salad.....
I really think I'm hopelessly un-crunchy....
:)
I know how you feel. I married into a somewhat-crunchy, semi-vegetarian family, and I am PARANOID about cooking for them. I was raised in a complete meat-and-potatoes household, and that's what I know how to cook. I usually end up suggesting going out for meals if we need to provide them. =)
Having a possible cruncy daughter-in-law hadn't occurred to me though...and I've got two boys! Shoot...
ooops..that should be "crunchy" not "cruncy"

A, it's funny you should mention that. I have felt guilty when cooking for non-vegetarians because there was no meat as part of the meal. one thing that seems to work is to make well-known (and well-liked!) dishes that are already vegetarian or can be made so with very little variation to the dish.
Nutmeg, you are definitely not hopelessly uncrunchy. For one thing, you served a salad as part of dinner. (And for what it's worth, I always use pasta sauce from a jar! LOL.) Sounds like a healthy dinner to me! :-)
Thanks for the love, guys!
I think I'll go put on my Birkenstocks and rajah hippie shirt!
LOL
